If you plan to experience a banana plantation while being in Tenerife, we recommend a visit to Finca Las Margaritas.

Finca Las Margaritas is a family-run banana plantation where their dedicated staff passionately and humorously share their love for bananas. Not only do their lovely guides take you on an insightful tour through the lush banana forest, but you can try many local products that incorporate the star of the show – the banana. The small, sweet Canarian banana is a must-try when you come to the Canary Islands!

Finca Las Margaritas has made it its mission to combine tourism with agriculture and education in order to preserve the culture around banana cultivation. Thus, this banana plantation contributes to raising awareness of the younger generations about the origin of fruit and vegetables. Among others, their sustainable actions further include:

  • Employment of local people with a short commute
  • Collaborating with local producers for their degustations of Canarian products and educating visitors about them
  • Usage of recycled water for the irrigation of banana plants
  • Separating waste in both the plantation and the tasting area
  • Reduction of plastic use and single-use plastic by 90%

Sustainable banana plantation

5.0/ 5

This is a must do when coming to Tenerife to learn about the banana as a plant and its production! The staff is very friendly and especially tour guide Anna is super passionate about bananas. The visit includes a tasting of many yummy local products, including a red banana mojo which is the best red mojo I have ever had in Tenerife!
